Last week TBA produced the DAC Beachcroft Annual Partners Conference at the Riverbank Park Plaza. The event was an opportunity for the company’s 250 partners from around the world to catch up and celebrate the organisation’s 250th birthday. The set and stage reflected the celebratory theme, and paid tribute to the London setting of the event.

During plenary sessions, iPads were used for interactive table discussions – this was the first time they’d used technology for their event but delegates got really stuck in.

The evening celebration included a performance from a Rat Pack band and informal food stations that represented the cuisine of their worldwide office locations. To celebrate their 250 year history, the delegates had their photo taken holding their “year” in front of a green screen and then a relevant landmark background was added – this culminated in a montage of the photos played back to the delegates at the end of the event. The 250 photos will eventually form part of a commemorative booklet.
